Picked up 3 new shirts that I'm considering wearing to the beach. Actually everything I'm buying lately I'm considering for the beach. *lol* I'm so exhausted to be totally honest. I need a break from working so much. I finally have a 3 day weekend, but that only entitles moving into our new apartment, so not much of a weekend off, but my fiance and I finally get to spend some quality time together, something we haven't done ALL summer. :( Anyway, here's some shirts I picked up!

Victoria Secrets is giving away their Pink dogs again with any pink purchase! I had a coupon for a free panty with any pink purchase, so I picked up these shorts for $16.50, got a free panty and the free dog. Score. :)

I had an AMAZING weekend! My fiance and I went to a local amusement park, and we had such a good time. We haven't been there in like 2 years, maybe more. It's one of my favorites because my parents always took me when I was a kid, hopefully when I have children I can take them there too! I've been so busy this past week, I worked 50+ hours this past week alone, so to spend a day at the amusement park was a lot of fun, and definitely something I needed!

I forgot to include this in my last post! I picked up this Cake Pop and Donut Hole Maker from JCPenney, on sale for $19.99. I haven't tried it yet, but I can't wait to! Has anyone tried this? I'd love to hear your thoughts.

I absolutely love cake pops & so does the fiance, so I can't wait to try it!

As I mentioned in a previous post my fiance and I did some shopping for things for the apartment. We don't need a lot of things, but we definitely needed some new things and of course I got some extras. ;) I picked up things from JCPenney and from Big Lots since they were having their friends and family event. We got 20% off our entire purchase! I love shopping for dorm/apartment things when back-to-school comes around. I think even when I graduate I'll still be shopping in those sections. I love everything! :)

I'm also really excited about our apartment this year because it's just going to be my fiance and I. Last year we had to stay with two other roommates who were, lets say, a little dirty. It didn't matter how much I cleaned, I felt like the apartment was always dirty because our roommates would never clean up after themselves. When my fiance and I would go home on the weekend our roommate would always have a party and never clean up after himself. It was just disgusting. But this year it'll be just my fiance and I, so it'll be beautiful! I'll finally be able to do a apartment tour! :)

This is completely random. I picked it up at Big Lots for around $3.00 I'm not entirely sure what it's suppose to be used for, but above our washer & dryer we have a bunch of stuff that's just all over, and I figured I could better organize it by putting it in this thing. :)

I got this at Big Lots for $23.99(With the discount, originally 29.99) I am so excited for it because at school I have a cheap pink Sterlite one, and it's just awful at fitting my pj's & unmentionables. This storage stand will be perfect because the bins are much bigger and is more sturdy! Plus it has a nice table top I could decorate. :)

We desperately need new shower curtains and liners. Last year we picked up a cheap set that was just disgusting. So I spent a little more and picked up this cute set. Our bathroom is "beach themed" so I figure the little fish would be so cute. I also picked up the microfiber liner, has anyone used this kind of liner before? Any thoughts on it?

Cute fish!

Now this is completely unnecessary, but it's 4 cupcake holders. They're so cute! They're suppose to hold cupcakes, but I'm sure I'll use them for something else.

We also needed a new silverware set. Ours was breaking apart, so I picked out another set from JCPenney.

I absolutely love this curtain. It's going in my room. It's so cute!!

And for our bathroom I got this over-the-door towel hook. It holds 6 towels, supposedly. It was only $3.00 so I'm kind of excited to try it.

My new sheets for our room. I LOVE them! They're white and pink, and the flowers are pink, too adorable.

I've also been doing some shopping online for things I want. Some things I want from Wal-Mart.com

Continuing on with my previous post of things that made me happy today. I'm considering just adding it in with my daily post, unless I post in the morning. Haha.

1.

I left work today at 4:00. I did not stay a minute after. I'm so proud of myself. :P Lately I've been working like crazy. I haven't had a day off in a while, with the exception of yesterday. Now I'm working until next Sunday because I volunteered to come in on my day off. *sighs*

2.

I finally found the time to go tanning today! It's been over a week..

3.

I'm assuming PA passed their state budget?!?! I got a letter in the mail from my university stating I'm receiving grants & loans in the fall to cover my classes & apartment!! I was sweating this for a while because there was going to be many cuts in the funding for state colleges.

4.

My fiance and I did a lot of shopping for things for our apartment yesterday and I can't wait to share everything with you!! Everything is still in the trunk of my car actually. haha. Tomorrow I'll unload everything and take photos for you guys!! :D

As you guys know from my previous post my fiance bought me a bikini from eBay.com that I really wanted, but the bikini bottoms were entirely TOO small. :( Psssh so I found a pair of bikini bottoms from Victoriasecrets.com for $18.99 on clearance that I love. I also picked up a dress from their Bra Top collection that I'm in love with. I love the colors and it'll be perfect for the beach. Which by the way in less than a month away! I seriously can not wait!

The new bikini bottoms that will cover up my tush. :P

Bra Top Dress for a whopping $19.99 I love it because it's also long enough for me.

What it looks like on. BTW I just got out of the shower when I took the picture, so please excuse the wet hair. haha

It's been one hell of a year. But I truly am happy that we're engaged. Even though there was been no planning like I anticipated (because of my family) I couldn't be happier. I'm with the one person that can truly make me happy and that's all that matters. I love him to pieces and can't believe we've gone this far.

This will be my last and final post about Maryland, I promise! lol It's everything I bought while I was down there, which isn't much, but wanted to share anyway. :) I picked up souvenirs from the Baltimore Aquarium, some things from Forever 21, Urban Outfitters and stuff from a little boutique. I really wasn't impressed with things at Forever 21. Maybe it was just me not looking good enough because the guys were waiting around on us, so I didn't want to hold them up. My fiance and I are going on a "shopping spree" before we go to the beach to purchase new clothes. I'm saving my money for that & I can't wait!!

First is things I bought from Laila Rowe, a small store with many cute accessories. The last time I went to Baltimore I spotted all these gorgeous umbrellas but $25 for an umbrella? Really? I couldn't bring myself to buy one. But I thought about those umbrellas ALL the time. (Does anyone else do this?) So I knew when I went back I had to pick one up, and to my surprise everything in the store was buy 1 get 1 free.

Umbrella $25, folds down around you.

Headband $12 = FREE

Definitely going to wear this to the beach.

Urban Outfitters I picked up one thing, cupcake key covers. $1.99 on clearance from $8

Forever 21 purchases.

My new traveling makeup holder.

Flower ring $2.80

Hello Kitty cupcake mints

Actual cupcake mints

I also picked up two nail polishes I wanted off line.

From the Aquarium I picked up a photo frame & a magnet to put on our fridge at our apartment.

A lot of blogs I read always write about things that made them happy that day or the downsides of their days. And I always love to read them, it makes you appreciate all the little things. I find myself being upset about small things and would like to make this more of a habit in my daily blogging. By the end of the day you could look back and think of things that made you happy, going to sleep happy. So I thought I would make a post of it. I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I did posting it. :)

The second day we were being bums and slept till 10:00 so we went out for "brunch" at this place called Stuggy's where they basically put everything you could imagine on a hot dog. We all got the special that included a hot dog topped with mac & cheese, an order of fried oreos and a drink, all for $9! It was seriously the best hot dog I ever ate in my life. :)

Afterwards we went to the Science Museum. Not only was it a good price to go ($14.95) it was a lot of fun, and very interesting.

It appears as though the dinosaur is going to eat my head. But the photo turned out good nonetheless.

Me, being a dork.

Afterwards we went to the harbor where I did some shopping. They opened up a "It's Sugar" and you guys know how much I love that store. This is the only other It's Sugar I've been in, besides the one in Atlantic City. I swear they're rare or something! I took a ton of photos to show you what it looks like. Compared to the one in Atlantic City this one is SMALL. But I loved it!

I want the pair that has "Sweet Cheeks" on the butt. ;) Maybe when I go to Atlantic City this year. :P

They had a ton of Hello Kitty merchandise, and I had to take photos. I love the little Hello Kitty holding the cupcake minus the rainbow attire. :/

They had HUGE tootsie pops!! Me being a dork, had to pose with one. :P

This one is a little creepy if you ask me.

After It's Sugar we all wanted to go on these dragon paddle boats. OMG, it was just too funny, and SO much fun!

See the green dragon to your right? That's the paddle boat we were on! :P Also, the photo is of the Aquarium, huge isn't it?!

Of course the girls were paddling.

Shops at the harbor.

My favorite photo of us on the dragon boat.

Later that night after my friend and I shopped for like 5 hours we went to this place called Abbey's Burgers. Delicious!

Tomorrow I'll do a post on the things I bought while in Maryland. Talk to you guys later!!
